Glass Flood Walls

The Glass Flood Wall Systemgives permanent flood protection requiring no assembly by the client. Compared to other flood defence systems, the glass floodwalls do not compromise on beautiful views. Hence, glazed floodwalls are the ideal flood defence solution for seafront and riverside properties.

Flood Defence Gates

Other Flood Defence Solutions

Our Nautilus demountable flood barriers are the perfect solution to flood-proof your home or business. However, numerous other flood prevention systems are available; some of our flood protection products are listed below. Also, it is imperative to check and address any possible entry points for flood water.

We carry out all of the above free of charge when installing our flood defence barriers or flood defence gates.

Anti-Flood Air Brick Protection

Properties have flooded from floodwater entering through the air bricks. 500 litres of water can enter one standard airbrick in one minute! Worrying enough, but when a property has one, there will undoubtedly be more than one airbrick. Replacing standard clay air bricks with SMART AirBricks provides automatic flood protection. It stops floodwater from entering a property through the airbricks.

Non-Return Valves and Backwater Valves

Additionally, backwater valves and non-return valves are a simple, cost-effective solution to protect properties from flooding. Non-return valves installed inside of manholes. Basically, these are fully automatic, and they stop backflow of sewage into a property. One way valves fitted onto drainage pipes decrease the risk of sewage backing up into a building during a flood. The valve allows water to exit the property but closes to prevent the backflow into the property.

Flood Pumps, Flood Alarms and Other Flood Prevention Products

To be sure of protecting your property against flooding from every possible point of entry is crucial. It is also wise to purchase a Flood Pump. They are an equally important part of flood protection. Coupled with other flood prevention systems, Flood Pumps can drastically reduce the damage that flooding can cause. We also supply and install flood alarms and many other flood defence products all around the UK. Contact us to see how we can help protect your home or business against flooding.

Worst Flooding

The worst floods since 1968 hit Sowerby Bridge in West Yorkshire, Boxing Day 2015. Like many thousands of homes and businesses, Halifax Ironworks suffered extensive flood damage.

Not wanting to risk going through this devastation again, Halifax Ironworks put in mezzanine floors to raise machinery. We installed Nautilus demountable flood defence barriers for doors to protect each doorway. Also, other flood protection products were fitted to prevent flooding.

Over the last three years, the team at Halifax Ironworks have been regularly checking and assembling their flood defence systems. Additionally, they check the condition of the walls. By taking these appropriate measures ensures being fully prepared for another flood.

March 2019, the flood defence barriers were truly tested for the first time. Our clients were happy to report that their factory remained dry. You can read their fantastic review over on our Reviews Page.
